lyrics

Chorus:
Magic/ back and to the left/ his head went back and to the leftMagic/ back and to the left/ Jack went back and to the leftMagic/ back and to the left/ his head went back and to the left

Verse 1
Get away with murder if ya did it for the governmentWhy would I joke? I know who runs it click the big picture/ rich will get richerpoor will get poorer/ that's how they get yastill wanna believe in the systempeep the campaign or sleep on this wisdomeither way need to say this from the heartTrojan slogans kept us in the darkchange on the surface? What about purpose?Prophecies, promises, polices/ worthlessAll about as hollow as the earthPretty penny pile of debt got you nervousAgainst the complex? Prolly gon dieCan't lead the sheeple if you ain't gon lieSimple as that man the devil and BatmanTwo sides of same coin Joker made the whole plan

Verse 2
22nd of November 1963The Family of Camelot shocked the world made it clear that we're not so freeWhat you need to know is the fatal blow could not happen from that angleThe voice of the Truth been kept at a hush I'mma speak it til I'm still strangledYou can't shut down what's obvious for the length of eternityStop listening to the official spin and research each branch of the treeUnderstand every scam has a lamb they cram into the view few choose to seePredictive programmers make you hold hands with corporatocracy

Bridge:
Abracadabra/ follow the mad hatter/or was it the rabbit/ you're in the hole it don’t matter

Verse 3
This business of lying keeps innocent children dying/ the cold war's hotter than ever dollars depress like an iron[pause] the press never shining light on the almighty lions/ they wanna keep us in darkness but people peep the horizon/American nightmares so real they might scare the feeble, fake, and phony/ just go within don't listen to them or you'll end up chasing KONY/ on the Animal Farm in 1984/ the clocks move but does your heart?through Movies, music, poetry, blood paints this war of art/ Magic
